+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #188313 +++
Description of problem: The options for mailx descriped in the mailx man page does not match the implementation of mailx.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mailx-12.4-1
How reproducible: always
Steps to Reproduce: 1. run "man mailx" 2. use that information to try to use /bin/mailx 3.
Actual results:
Many options fail. For example, the "-e" option is described in the man page, but running "mailx -e" produces: mailx: invalid option -- e Usage: mail [-iInv] [-s subject] [-c cc-addr] [-b bcc-addr] to-addr ... [-- sendmail-options ...] mail [-iInNv] -f [name] mail [-iInNv] [-u user]
Expected results: The options described in the mailx man page should match what the mailx program accepts.
